I have a few questions is it true with all newer trailer if you have your marker lights on and turn your 4 way flashers on when hooked to trailer all lights flicker on and off on trailer !truck wiring is good its a 2014 dodge next question regarding rv batteries if I pull all the 12 volt fuses and turn all 120 volt breakers off I still have a big draw on my battery

I may be wrong, but if everything is off/fuses pulled, then the only thing left is the converter and possibly outside items like landing gear, electric stabilizers (if installed) which MAY be fused with separate fuses. The converter also may be trying to charge the battery if needed.

Not sure about the 4 way flashers (have not used them much). I don't think mine work like you wrote. As you said, it may be just newer rigs (?).

You still have the radio, co, and lp detector that draw off battery.
